My Project

My students are diverse learners and need different ways of learning literacy. These items will allow them to explore literacy in a fun and exploratory way. These materials will also allow me to introduce early literacy learning to my students in multiple settings.

I plan on using these materials for my students this year and years to come.

So even though this says I have 20 students these materials will allow me to help over 100 students in the years to come.

I want to thank you for your generosity and support in supporting my students through their learning!
